The fact is there are more money and guests than ever in the STR world and this is attracting bigger players who will crash existing hosts if they don't adapt to the new ecosystem. 

They are similar to a tenant that rented your place via AirBnB and are refusing to leave for the next tenants’ arrival. 

Hi Shawn, When I left banking during the last major crash and started this company, we primarily were a commercial bridge lender, but we also were a real estate investor.

You only want to wait if property values are crashing, crashing hard enough to make a difference. 

This market has its pitfalls but its not crashing.

When looking for options for something pre-fab to plop on our lot, we keep seeing things about Amazon homes and they seem super affordable, but I don't see a ton of information on them and how to plan for the house arriving.

Participants are continuously told “we’ll cover all these details so you can do this too in just a moment”, the moment never arrives. 

Apartments for me, is not user friendly at all, it almost crashes every time I touch the unit photos, and it will approve my listing then deny and unpost it a week later.

If you are in this business long enough you will undoubtedly arrive at situations where taking the small loss even if not fair or warranted based on the circumstances is best if it keeps everything moving and avoids more costly delays, liability and inconveniences.In this case, if you withhold the $2K, you still have to find someone to complete the work to your satisfaction.

The tourist high season has arrived, so we'll have plenty of demand to accommodate us.
